TO ALL WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:

'Beit known that I, THOMAS YATES, of Dubuquo, in the county of Dubuque, State of Iowa, have made and invented a new and useful improvement on a Stove; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exactdescription of the construction and operation of the same. reference being had to the annexed drawings, making a part of this specification, in which Figure 1 is a plan or top view, with the top plate and cover removed.

Figure 2 is a plan view of the lower drum-chamber 0, taken through the line a: :v in fig. 3.

Figure 3 represents a vertical central section of my invention, which consists of the usual oval form given to heating-stoves, with four legs, door, and smoke pipe, also an open top fire-chamber, surrounded by a draughtchamber, connected by seven side pipes to a drum-chamber, so arranged that it can be used as a heating-stove and drum at one and the same time, or separately, if desired.

To enable others skilled in the art to make and use my invention, I will proceed to describe its construction and operation; i

It is composed of two top plates and two bottoms, of cast iron. The sides and the pipes are composed of sheet iron. Between the two top plates, and surrounding the open-top fire-chamber A, represented by figs. 1 and 3, is formed the draught-chamber ff, in which are arranged the two dampers g and h, by which the draught can be changed in different directions. The side pipes a e e e are arranged and connected, by orifices made for their reception, .to draught-chamber and drum-chamber c, which is formed by the two bottom plates in such a manner that the draught can he directed from the draught-chamber down the four pipes on this the left side, then across the bottom in the drum-chamber to the other or right side, then up the three pipes to the pipe hole j. The pipe d, at the bottom ofthe drum-chamber, is for the purpose of attachment to any other stove.

The operation is as follows: When desired to be used as a heating-stove and drum, it is placed upon the second floor of any building through which there is a hole for the passage of a. pipe from below, which is attached to the drum by the pipe 01, and, when used for a heating-store alone, the pipe 01 is removed and the orifice closed by a damper or cover. The two dampers g and h, fig. 3, are represented as being closed, by which means the draught is directed in the direction of-arrows marked 1, which is down the four pipes e e e e on this the left side, then across the drum-chamber c, fig. 2, to the other or right side; then-up the three pipes e e e to the pipe holej, thus radiating the heat through the whole entire stove. If the front damper h is opened as represented in fig. 1, the draught will be directed in the direct-ion of arrows marked 3 in figs. 1 and 3, through the draught-chamber ff, which surround the open-top fire-chamber A to the pipe hole If the rear damper g is opened, the draught will be in the direction of arrows marked 2, which is represented by fig. 3, which is the usual direction when starting the fire. The open-top fire-chamber has a cover, 6, which can be removed for the admission of fuel. Thcre is also a door, with a draught-hole at 1, for the admission of fuel.

Having thus described my invention, I do not claim the drum arrangement without my improvement, as that has been used before; but what I claim, and wish to secure by Letters Patent, is-

1. The arrangement of the open-top fire-chamber A, in combination with the upper draught-chamber ff, so that the draught can be directed around the open-top fire-chamber A, as specified. i

2. The arrangement of the two dampers g and h, in the upper draught-chamber be changed in the difierent directions as specified.

so that the draught can THOMAS YATES.
